What To Do Now

You are now a Christian and you are brand new on the inside. Re-created by God Himself, for good things. Now, in order for your new personal relationship with God to grow, it is essential that you do the following things:

1. Spend some time each day praying and worshiping God. In this way you will develop a strong relationship with Him. Also, allow for times of quiet, where he can speak to you and ‘download’ His thoughts into your heart and life.

2. Read the Bible daily (begin with the Gospel of John). God has chosen to express Himself through His book, the Bible. Now that you have the Holy Spirit resident on the inside of you it will be easier to understand what the Bible is saying.

3. You must find a church that teaches the Bible as the 100% Word of God and encourages a personal relationship with Jesus. Attend regularly. It is much easier to plant the Word in your heart when you are planted in a church.

4. Begin to develop friendships with sincere Christians, and be baptized. We need God and each other, so find friends you can trust and open up to them. Don’t rebuild the mask.

5. Tell other people about your new relationship with God. This may take you outside of your comfort zone, but it will release true joy in your heart. Our own troubles dim when we help others with their troubles.

My addiction to sin has caused me to become God’s enemy. So God punished me and I died. But in His mercy, He raised me from the dead, and regenerated me into a new person. A holy person. I cannot be this new person on my own, Ever. I became this new person in my identity with Christ. Now God’s favor is upon me. I inherited all the blessings. Since I am a regenerated person , God’s benefit to me is the ability to live a holy life. This power was granted to me, because Christ made me worthy to recieve this power. It is mine to believe in. This is the life of faith ; I have called upon the Lord, and He forgave me of my terrible sins. Now I have eternal life. And someday my earthly body will be supernatural , And I will live in it forever. This is my confession. I pray that I never turn away from this simple, yet profound truth.
